VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2024

Our first visit to the Lake District and found the site clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Well worth the money and the site is well placed for day trips to the northern lakes and peaks.

Excellent

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2024

Well located, easy access from the A66 and a short drive to both Penrith and Ullswater, plus the start of many fell walks. We also walked to local pub The Herdwick Inn, 15 minutes on the road or shorter across fields. Small, family run site, very quiet, despite it being full. We were early but we were able to check in anyway. Showers and toilets all very clean, not many people seemed to be using them. We were in a campervan so also used the washing up area, which was also clean and had washing up bowls and blue roll provided. We have been to many sites where neither of these were available.

Lovely site

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesAug 2024

Nice site within close proximity to the local areas of Penrith and Keswick. Bus stop nearby so was great for us not having to take the motorhome out to see the areas. Toilet and showers were good, play area for children and dog walking on site. Would recommend.

Lovely people and friendly, helpful staff

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesAug 2024

Nicely laid out, spacious site with good size pitches. Easy access off M6 and good location relatively close to Pooley Bridge and Keswick. Site facilities were spotlessly clean and of a good standard. Small park to keep young children entertained. Excellent value.

A lovely week

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJul 2024

First time we've stayed here but won't be the last. Lovely site, very friendly and helpful staff. Nice dog walk with bins. Nicely laid out site, made attractive with plants and flowers. Toilet block with toilets and showers - water always hot and good pressure. Hand and hair dryers. Small wash up block with sinks and washing machine and dryer. Pub about half a mile away (walkable along country lanes). Shops in Penrith or Keswick (both around 15-20 mins away). Easy to access site from A66 and a good location for visiting the Northern Lakes, North Cumbrian coast or to venture over the border into Scotland. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already talking about a return trip.

Fantastic stay

Camping Pod - Camping PodsJul 2024

Spent 6 nights at Beckses Caravan Park with my son. We stayed in one of their pods and we loved it. The staff and family who run the park were all very friendly and helpful. The toilet, shower and washing up facilities were the cleanest we've ever come across. The location of the site is also very convenient, just a 15 minute drive to either Penrith or Keswick. From our pod you could see Blencathra as well as other Wainwright Fells and Ullswater is a short drive away. All round, a fantastic site which I would highly recommend.

Lovely site

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJul 2024

This was our very first trip in our new campervan and I don't think we could have picked a more perfect site. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The toilets, showers, laundry and waste disposal areas were kept immaculately clean. The site was very tidy, with manicured grass and flower bed areas. Our hardstanding hook up pitch was a really good size with quite a gap to the next pitch. The Herdwick pub is just a mile down the road, which had a couple of cask ales on that kept me happy, and both of our meals that we had on Saturday night were beautifully cooked and of a good portion size. Yes you can hear the A66 behind the site during the day, but on the night time, the road quietens right down and once in our van, we heard nothing. We will definitely be back, as we were already regular visitors to the Lake District, and this site is in a perfect spot to use when visiting. Oh and the express bus from Penrith to Keswick and Cockermouth stops about 300m from the site, so transport links are great too. Thanks again for making our first van adventure so unforgettable.

Quiet Getaway

Lovely small site in a semi rural location, but only a 15min drive to some of the main attractions in the North Lake. Basic facilities but very clean and owners very helpful and welcoming.

Camping Pod - Camping PodsMay 2024

We stayed 3 nights in a pod with the intention of getting in some climbing. The site is within 10 minutes walk of a great friendly pub that served great food. The pod was spotless, as were the showers and toilets. Lovely hot water with taps, no pushing buttons. Highly recommended.

Wonderful site
